Everywhere

Proposed solution.
Everybody go buy 10 flaming horse mounts! That way ZOS will have enough moneys to buy back their initial servers form the pawn shop and maybe buy some more hamsters for power generation.

I am in Rivenspire near Northpoint and I am getting regular lag spikes - 500 and many 999+. There are few other players around.

It is just unplayable. And now I've crash. Good job.

Apologies for message spam - but decided to reset all the things including router and even fixing the client ... seems to have sorted everything out. Getting a steady 274 - 301 ping (which is average for Oz) so, that'll do, pig. That'll do. Now heading to Thornblade XD

Remove the lighting effects from the 1.3 patch. Game play is far more important.

I remember that smooth launch.... :

Deshaan, EU, fighting mobs which do the 'leap over your head' move, regularly see it and turn to hit the mob and 'miss', split second later the mob is back where they were when they jumped .. clearly my client thought the jump had happened and the server clearly didn't!

I tried doing the veteran pledge today (veteran Banished Cells) and had an ever worse experience than yesterday in veteran Darkshade Caverns.

During the whole dungeon we were getting lag spikes, although it was doable. Then keeper Imarill (the one with the jumping orbs) decided to bug out and kept rolling in the same place for long periods of time and not spawning any adds. Still doable, although strange. And then we came to Rilis, and the lag fest really picked up:

- Skills wouldn't fire off, or some would and others wouldn't;
- Mobs and boss wouldn't take damage even when skills hit;
- Mobs and boss would port around the room like crazy, making it nearly impossible to target them;
- Boss' healing orbs would freeze in place and not take damage, sometimes they would float in random directions, including AWAY from boss;
- I'd get the animation for being picked up in the orb, but remain on the ground and able to move around; after a few seconds I'd be pulled in the air (without the orb graphics) and back to the area where the orb should have picked me up.

ZOS, this is NOT acceptable. The group gave up after 2 tries, it was unplayable. Get your act together or you'll bring down the game. @ZOS_GinaBruno please keep following this issue - we need it fixed YESTERDAY. It's bad already that many people (myself included) were driven away from PvP from the long-standing, unresolved issues. If PvE starts being affected as well, there is no saving the game.

Remove the deer, it'll be fine then. Keep the pets though $$$$

My FPS never spikes below 30 these days. My ping bounces between 70s (normal), and spikes of 999+. This happens in towns, trials, dungeons, walking through remote areas, everywhere, any time.

I don't think they should('ve) take anything out of the game that helps with lag, I think they should spend some money and get better and/or more servers. Sometimes you just gotta fess up and say "hey, it didn't work and I need to admit it and fix it", at what ever the cost.

I wish there was a group of computer geniuses that went around to different game companies, went inside and were allowed to take over for a day just to report on how well(or not) a company was running their product for their customers.

I was going to get into the thing about having a megaserver makes it better to group with friends but my post would triple in size and I just woke up and not typing that much.

so funny is got nothing new here is just old player come back , and the server do the same of before

Simply another sign that the mega-server tech isn't fit for purpose, we've not had too many problems in recent months due to the massive drop in player numbers, now a few have returned it's as bad as it was in the middle of last year before the great exodus.

Okay, this is getting to the point of unplayability. It's now so bad it's happening almost every fight, a mob will leap over me, I'll spend 2-3 secs hitting at it without connecting then suddenly the mob's back where it was when it did the leap.

I just had a fight against 3 mobs where two did the leap and neither ended up where they were jumping to.

EU Deshaan, latency is 65-100 so that's not a problem, something bad is happening on the server.

Every day since Tamriel Unlimited in peak hours (EU server - 4 PM GMT+1, last i tried to do daily was today 10 PM, lag persists) lag in daily dungeons is unbearable.
Skills take 15-40-infinity seconds to execute, mobs stand still. Lag affects whole party and mobs (they dont do damage while lagging).

Lag affects other dungeons as well only not as much.

Malabor Tol / Greenshade.... 50%+ of all NPC stop at 5% health for 10-15 seconds before death openworld.
They take no damage at this time....and then die.
Its like the server is conflicted on whether it actually should let the NPC die or not.
Is there justice system code that could be affecting all NPCs ?
Can they stack stack damge shield below 5% health lol

PVP is just unplayable with any opposition.

EU server.
